I can't see how the inclusion/omission of the service number from the branding, makes the slightest bit of difference here.

Agree a route branded bus covering on another route is confusing, hence why everything should just be corporate red to keep things simple.
My point was when route branding is designed the sensible thing would be to include the service number within the livery beside the destinations, therefore at least when a Coaster is on the X66 for example, you can see that Whitley Bay etc apply to service 1, not X66.
